Do you ever wonder why some women artists are barely acknowledged until later in their lives? Is it because they are far ahead of their time, and it takes that long, or longer, for the world which is not particularly astute in any case, to catch up? And yet these women don't seem to care when the acknowledgement finally comes, because that is not what they were seeking in the first place. They wanted some sort of honesty, some sort of truth. They didn't need anyone to tell them anything.
It feels like this is how Gee Vaucher spent her life. She kept working. finding her own truth as part of her own community. Some people knew all along. They didn't need to tell anyone else.
It might be a coincidence that the book Richard Hamilton was working on when he died, was also titled Introspective. There is certainly plenty to reflect upon in both artists' lives.
